One problem in concatenative speech synthesis is how to incorporate prosodic factors in the unit selection. Imposing a predicted prosodic target is error-prone and does not benefi...
Abstract. We consider the problem of maintaining a minimum spanning tree within a graph with dynamically changing edge weights. An online algorithm is confronted with an input sequ...
Lossless condensers are unbalanced expander graphs, with expansion close to optimal. Equivalently, they may be viewed as functions that use a short random seed to map a source on ...
We propose a method based on sparse representation
(SR) to cluster data drawn from multiple low-dimensional
linear or affine subspaces embedded in a high-dimensional
space. Our ...
Traditional aspect graphs are topology-based and are impractical for articulated objects. In this work we learn a small number of aspects, or prototypical views, from video data. ...
